Hello Everyone, how are you doing ?
so last week my cat gave birth to three kittens, they are growing up great they just started opening their eyes yesterday, and the mother is loving and protective of them , the problem is while she was feeding them today i noticed which i would assume clotted blood around the nipples !! i tried wiping it lightly but it won't come out and i'm too scared to put any more pressure to clean it off of her to be honest !
i'm thinking of taking her to the vet but i don't want to separate her from her kittens since she's very protective of them, even when i try lifting them up she starts screaming until i put them down. any advice on what i should and should not do ??
as you can see in the picture the upper two nipples close to her arms are small and okay since the kittens don't feed from them but the rest are like that and i don't know what is it i should be doing !
thank you very much
